"The universe is not just stranger than we think, it's stranger than we can think."

I can't deny that your alternative reality might exist. All I can say is that I have no reason to believe it does. Your speculations about it do remind me of some of the more exotic theories now being put forth in physics and cosmology.

The spiritual experience you alluded to obviously affected you deeply, but until something comparable occurs to me, I'm afraid I must remain a skeptic. Many religious people have recounted similar stories to me, some with much more detail than you provided, so I am not dismissing them out of hand. But I must confess that so far, I am just not convinced they are real.

But I can respect your religious convictions because they do not demand that I immediately and unquestioningly accept an arbitrary list
of doctrines on penalty of eternal suffering.
